Postal insurance: $1(optional) What is an Inro ? An Inro, used for carrying small objects, is a tier or nest of samll cases skillfully fitted into one another. It is suspended by a looped silk cord that passes through cord runners along its sides, then through a silding bead (ojime), and then under the obi, where it is fastened to a netsuke that rests securely at the top of the sash. The ojime is moved up or down to allow the cases to be opened and closed. The Inro was worn almost exclusively by men, whose narrow sash neatly accommodated the ensemble. Women carried small objects by placing them in their roomy sleeves or tucking them into their wide obi.
